“Did it take my son just a year to rise in the martial arts world?”
“We have a daughter-in-law and a granddaughter? They are waiting for us to come back before getting married!”
“Does our daughter already have a boyfriend? Who is he? We should scrutinize him well!”
“They’re living in Hong Kong now. My son bought a mountain and they are all there…”
It took Zhang Guangyou and Rong Jiali ten minutes to digest the news, but they were still startled.
Actually, they were more proud than shocked!
“My son is more formidable than me. He’s worthy of being my son.” Zhang Guangyou grinned from ear to ear.
“They’ve suffered a lot in recent years.” Rong Jiali’s eyes turned a little red again.
Her heart ached for them.
However, they did not want to waste time at this moment and were eager to see them, Rong Jiali in particular.
“What should we do now?” After keeping silent for ten seconds, Rong Jiali calmed down and asked, “My son went to the Kun Xu World, while the others are still in Hong Kong. Shall we go to the Kun Xu World and Hong Kong respectively, or go to the Kun Xu World first to find our son, or wait for him in Hong Kong?”
“I suggest you go to Hong Kong. Since Zhang Han was able to survive when he was searching for the lost relics, he must be safe in the worldlet. I know you’re worried that the Wind Snow School will threaten Zhang Han, but you should not underestimate him. Any enemy who dares to look down on him is already dead. He is more experienced than me and has a good command of many things. I will call Changqing and ask him what’s going on there first. Then you can make a decision.” The Warlord of Chan Clan made a proposal.
“Well, let’s make a phone call first.” Zhang Guangyou nodded.
Hearing what the Warlord of Chan Clan said, he felt more assured about Zhang Han’s safety. He knew the Warlord of Chan Clan seldom praised others, so Zhang Han was obviously excellent enough that he spoke so highly of him.
Zhang Guangyou did not know what he was feeling at this point.
He had mixed emotions, feeling both pride and delight at the same time. He, more than ever, was looking forward to meeting Zhang Han and Zhang Li.
“Alas.” Zhang Guangyou and Rong Jiali looked at the Warlord of Chan Clan with mixed feelings.
He dialed Chen Changqing’s number and asked, “Changqing, what’s going on over there? Do you have any news about Zhang Han?”
“Everything is well now, but Captain Xuanwu told me that countless people came out of the worldlet through five entrances. As we said before, the forces supporting the Li family probably intended to play dirty tricks. For instance, although Gu Donglai, Xiang Qitian and some others have connections with the worldlet, they would not attract much attention. What they worry about is the Luo Fu Sword sect, the Wind Snow School and the Lihun Sect, especially the Wind Snow School, which is indeed powerful. Brother Han killed more than a dozen of their disciples, so we’re afraid that they will come over once they learn that Mount New Moon has two divine objects. The martial artists at the Divine Realm Stage are easy to defeat, but the men at the Earth Realm Stage are truly hard nuts to crack.”
“The man from Wind Snow School? I’ll ask some people to help you and you should wait patiently. Just inform me if there are any updates.”
After he finished speaking, the Warlord of Chan Clan hung up because he saw Zhang Guangyou waving his hand.
“Zhang Han stole a holy object from Mu Xue, the princess of the Luo Fu Sword sect, as well as that of Ye Longyuan, the disciple of the Lihun Sect. What’s more, he defeated Shi Fenghou and killed more than a dozen disciples of the Wind Snow School. As I expected, we need to be on guard against the Wind Snow School. Now, they have no idea that Zhang Han is your son. If they learn that he is from the Heavenly Knights Sect, they will feel uneasy.” The Warlord of Chan Clan said.
“We may as well go to Hong Kong first. Our son is really powerful. so we have to take good care of our daughter-in-law. Little Wu will contact us as once he comes out of the worldlet. By then, I’ll ask him to meet Zhang Han to make arrangements.” Rong Jiali said while looking at Zhang Guangyou.
“Well, without further ado, you should leave now. Let’s go to Hong Kong first and wait for Little Wu. Then we can ask someone to contact Uncle Dong. With him, we will all definitely be safe.”
Zhang Guangyou nodded.
“I’ll ask someone to book the first available flight for you.” The Warlord of Chan Clan said.
“Okay, thank you, Senior Chen.” Zhang Guangyou cupped his hands in obeisance.
Now he did not plan to ask Zhang Nan for help. If Zhang Nan had taken good care of Zhang Han and Zhang Li as always, he would have treated them well after my return, even if he was under great pressure. Now… he figured that Zhang Han did the right thing. Everyone had his own way to go. Zhang Guangyou had brought great honor and considerate assets to the Zhang Clan while living with them, so he did not feel he owed them anything.
Moreover, he was angry at this time. His son had been down and out for more than five years… Who would pay for that?
“Alas, it’s all my fault.” Zhang Guangyou sighed in his mind.
He just wanted to be with Zhang Han and his family in the future.
The three of them stood up and Rong Jiali put on her white bamboo hat again.
“Let’s go back to the Chen Clan first. The flights should have been booked, so we can go there by bus.”
The Warlord of Chan Clan took the lead in flying out after saying that.
Although such omnipotent martial artists were like immortals who conquered the sky and sea, they consumed a lot of spiritual force while flying. Their spiritual force would be exhausted if they flew from Shang Jing to Hong Kong.
When they were about to set out, the Warlord of Chan Clan finalized all arrangements with just one phone call
After arriving at the Chen Clan, the three of them directly got into a stretch Bentley.
“Do you have any news about Zhang Shenwang?” The Warlord of Chan Clan asked.
“Not yet.” Zhang Guangyou raised his eyebrows slightly and sighed, “My father cultivates in seclusion from time to time in recent decades. He fought against the head of the Wind Snow School more than a decade ago and I lost track of him after that. Later, I chatted with Senior Wuwei and he said they might have accidentally entered into the Kunlun Immortal World. It’s easy to access that place, but it is hard to get out.”
“How’s your relationship with the Wind Snow School now?” The Warlord of Chan Clan asked again.
At this point, Zhang Guangyou had a proud expression on his face as he said, “The other four worldlets are still in the same state, but the Kun Xu World and the Wind Snow School have now become influential forces.”
“The Heavenly Knights Sect is worthy of its name, which is so awesome.” The Warlord of Chan Clan said with emotion, “I remember that more than ten years ago, in addition to your father, it cultivated eight masters at the Heaven Realm Stage. I wonder…”
The Heavenly Knights Sect cultivated nearly 20 experts at the Heaven Realm Stage 50 years ago. Since such battles were too exhausting, the number of Heaven Realm experts had decreased even though some of them made breakthroughs.
“There were six Heaven Realm masters left.” Zhang Guangyou was silent for two seconds before he said, “Five of the six masters who were at such a stage from the Wind Snow School are in the Kun Xu World, so there’s only one left in the outside world.”
The Warlord of Chan Clan’s face changed when he heard Zhang Guangyou’s words. Those masters at the Heaven Realm Stage had been dead for so many years. Considering that two experts from the Heavenly Knights Sect and four from the Wind Snow School were dead, the other four worldlets, especially the Southwestern Main Sect of the Wind Snow School, did not offer any support. In fact, the branch of the Kun Xu World was no match for the Heavenly Knights Sect at all.
“This is the war.” The Warlord of Chan Clan sighed with emotion.
“Let’s stop talking about this topic. I’ll call Old Gai first.”
Zhang Guangyou took out an old-fashioned mobile phone from his pocket. With the rapid development of the electronics industry, Zhang Guangyou’s phone was an outdated model as he had it for more than five years.
Fortunately, it was still serviceable, so he dialed Gai Xingkong’s number.
“Guangyou? Are you out?” A surprised voice sounded.
“I’m back. Can I meet you in Hong Kong?”
“Great! Hahaha, you seem to know all about your kids, don’t you?”
“Yes, Senior Chen told me in detail.”
“Well, well, I’ll set off after making the arrangements. Let’s have dinner tonight.”
“Okay.”
After chatting for a few minutes, he hung up.
Then, the Warlord of Chan Clan continued to talk with the two of them. Rong Jiali did not talk much, so she sat quietly aside.
About one and a half hours later, they reached the international airport.
Seeing the Warlord of Chan Clan waving them off, Zhang Guangyou and Rong Jiali got on the private plane specially arranged by the Chen Clan.
After learning that Zhang Guangyou was back, Gai Xingkong summoned the superiors of the Gai Clan in a hurry and reminded them of some matters that required their attention. Since the Gai Clan had nothing to do with the worldlet and were not in a feud with others given its relatively upright style, he was assured.
Moreover, now that the worldlet appeared, the National Security Agency would send some stronger people to Ice City, who could assist them in the face of special situations.
At the same time…
Chen Changqing was sitting in the pavilion a little distance away from the thunder yang tree on Mount New Moon in Hong Kong, while Zhao Feng, Instructor Liu and Wang Ming were standing beside him.
They were not in high spirits at this moment because they received a piece of disturbing news from Captain Xuanwu, “Yao Feng and his men are going to launch an attack after learning that some disciples of the Wind Snow School were killed by Zhang Hanyang.”
“He is obviously interested in the divine objects on the mountain. Two kinds of divine objects, together with some holy objects, will definitely attract many people’s attention.” Wang Zhanpeng said slowly, “In their view, the people on the mountain are still too weak and lack the ability to protect the treasures. We’ll be in the wrong even if we are robbed. This matter is indeed of great importance.”
“Even so, how can we just give away the treasures? Martial artists should not be cowards. If they dare to attack us, we must shoot them to death!” Instructor Liu said coldly.
“It’s not that simple.” Wang Zhanpeng frowned slightly, “I heard Captain Xuanwu say that Yao Feng, as the supervisor of the Wind Snow School, is overbearing and even bullied Shi Fenghou before. Qing Zhen Zi, his master, together with the powerful Wind Snow School, stand a good chance of exerting pressure on the government. However, it is not right for them to intervene in the internal battle in the martial arts world.”
“Forget it, but Master Wang is right. My uncle said that it will take at least three days for such a large number of soldiers to evacuate. As is known to all, we’ll get into trouble if the enemy comes aggressively three days later.” Instructor Liu responded with a smile.
“Three days are enough.” Chen Changqing shook his head slightly, “Don’t think too much about it. It will happen if it is doomed to happen. My grandfather said our reinforcements are on the way. I’m somewhat curious about who will be coming over.”
“Let’s wait and see first. If the enemy dares to take action, my Soul-gathering Flag can exert its strength, which will help defeat the man at the Divine Realm Early-stage easily.” Wang Zhanpeng’s eyes were filled with conviction.
Now that they did not have anything else to do, they just sat there drinking tea and chatting.
As for Mengmeng, she was feeling a little emotionally unstable because of the absence of her PaPa.
The little girl would have been delighted if Zhang Han was home. But now, until dusk, she was only slightly happy, going to the back hill to play with Zi Yan, Zhou Fei, Rong Jiaxin, Zhang Li and Wang Ya.
After arriving at the back hill, Zhou Fei and Chen Changqing sat aside, whispering to each other, while Zi Yan, Dahei, Little Hei and Tiny Tot played with Mengmeng.
“Puff…”
Suddenly, a gust of breeze that was slightly colder than the surrounding air, blew across the mountain.
Hiss!
Chen Changqing froze all of sudden, his hair standing on end and stared at the area near Mount New Moon.
“Huh?”
Five seconds later, he frowned and had a puzzled expression on his face.
He seemed to have felt something, but this feeling dissipated soon.
Did it come from the thunder yang tree?
He was uncertain, but he was instantly on the alert.
The others present, however, did not feel the breeze at all.
Actually, they did not know there were two hidden figures hovering over the mountain gate.
“Well, great. the scenery here is beautiful. Lili is over there! She’s grown up and become really beautiful. My sister, who looks the same as before, is over there. She’s also a Grand Master now…” Rong Jiali’s eyes turned red and she sobbed even as she observed what she saw in a pleasant tone.
“I’m so proud of my son!” Zhang Guangyou sighed with mixed feelings. Then, they fixed their eyes on the little girl, who was frolicking at this point.
“She’s our granddaughter, isn’t she? What a delicate girl. The lady beside her is Zi Yan and she looks prettier than her photos. Ouch, we’re grandparents.” Zhang Guangyou’s expression could not be read, but he was somewhat surprised, amazed and happy.
“Let’s go! Hurry up! I want to talk to them and hug Lili.” Rong Jiali said eagerly.
She did not mention Zi Yan and Mengmeng. She did not know what kind of people they were since they had never met them before. She, therefore, planned to get to know them first.
“Let’s go!”
Zhang Guangyou and Rong Jiali quickly landed beside the forest on the side of the front hill, showing up as the light curtain that had cloaked their appearance dissipated. They walked on the road nearby and caught sight of the gate of Mount New Moon.
“That man at the God Realm Medium-stage should be Senior Chen’s grandson, whose appearance has changed after all these years.”
Zhang Guangyou shook his head repeatedly and said in surprise, “The surroundings are well protected. I did not expect that there were troops guarding the area and we were discovered even before we approached. Modern technology cannot be underestimated. It seems that our son is leading a better life than we thought. Haha.”
He was aware that he had been sighted by a lot of weapons once they got close. Although they had never seen these high-tech products before, they were allowed to pass as soon as they appeared. Obviously, it was the Warlord of Chan Clan who had made the preparations before.
“You look really glad.” Rong Jiali walked at a fast pace, which showed that she was anxious.
“Let’s go up the mountain. There are more than 30 Wu Dao Grand Masters here, many of whom have just broken through. Apart from them, there are more than 70 Heaven-stage Masters. Judging from their auras, they’re about to break through. It’s indeed beyond my imagination.”
Zhang Guangyou did not expect that the situation was much more complicated than he thought.
When they approached the gate, Zhang Guangyou and Rong Jiali raised their heads slightly. Looking at the giant stone gate with the inscription of three marvelous words, they could not help murmuring, “Cold Immortal School.”
However, two members of the security group on both sides of the gate intercepted them.
“Who are you?”
The man with a flattop haircut on the left stepped forward with a cold look, standing five meters away from them and frowning slightly.
Nowadays, the people who went up the mountain were the members of the restaurant and they knew all of them. Strangers were seldom seen at ordinary times, let alone at such a critical moment.
Therefore, both of them were a little vigilant and did not approach Zhang Guangyou and Rong Jiali, keeping a proper distance in order to respond to exceptional circumstances at any time.
After all, one of the two strangers, who was wearing a bamboo hat, was a woman as could be seen by the outline of her figure.
Who were they?
The two of them were curious, but they almost bit their tongues after hearing the man’s answer.
“We’re Zhang Han’s parents.”
Puff…
“What did you say?” The man with a flattop haircut felt dizzy all of a sudden, but he stayed alert and asked doubtfully, “You say you’re my boss’s parents. How can you prove it?”
“What’s more,” The man with a flattop haircut took on a cold look, “You shouldn’t play a trick on our boss. I hope you are aware that you’ll definitely pay a heavy price if you make fun of him.”
“I’m not joking. He’s indeed my son.”
Zhang Guangyou was in a good mood. After saying that, he released some of his auras.
The two guards felt a strong constriction in an instant.
They were so shocked that they could not help but take a few steps back, “Erm…”
He must be at the Divine Realm Stage or above!
“Excuse me.” The man with a flattop haircut bowed to him, “Please wait a minute and we’ll inform our superiors. Moreover, our boss is not on the mountain at this time.”
“Let’s go up first.”
Zhang Guangyou was not willing to wait at the place, so he held Rong Jiali’s hand and walked toward the gate.
The man with the flattop haircut glanced at the other man and gave up trying to stop them. Instead, he just kept pace with them, took out his mobile phone and dialed Chen Changqing’s number immediately, “Brother Qing, there’s an issue at the gate of the front hill. Two experts are on the mountain and they claim that they are the boss’s parents… Beep…”
The phone call ended.
On the other end of the phone line, Chen Changqing looked at Zhou Fei and said in a hurry, “I have something urgent to confirm.”
After glancing at Mengmeng, who was playing with Dahei, he turned into a stream of light and flew quickly to the front hill.
Seeing that, Wang Zhanpeng and the others could not help but stand up.
“Why is he in such a hurry?”
As for Zhang Guangyou and Rong Jiali, they rambled on the front hill, admiring the buildings on both sides.
“The building over there is very similar to my sister and Wang Ming’s house.”
“I guess my son lives in the castle ahead. It looks so magnificent.”
“The buildings here are well-constructed. The spiritual Qi in the air is almost as good as that in the worldlet.” Zhang Guangyou shook his head slightly after sensing the aura around.
It seemed that his son had encountered valuable opportunities!
What the two of them said gave the man with a flattop haircut and the other long-haired man behind them more cause to trust them.
Otherwise, who would stroll up the mountain?
Furthermore, the landscape on the left was similar to that of the Wang family, but ordinary people would not know about that!
They did not dare to say anything at this moment for fear that they might say something wrong.
Soon, half a minute later, a figure approached quickly. At this time, they let out a long sigh of relief.
With Emperor Qing around, they did not need to worry about anything.
However, they were still a little shocked by what happened the next moment.
Swish!
Chen Changqing got close to them in the blink of an eye.
“Uncle Zhang! Auntie Rong!” A surprised voice rang out from Chen Changqing’s mouth.
“Here you are, Changqing. You look more handsome than before.”
Zhang Guangyou sized him up carefully and nodded with a smile.
He was acquainted with his son’s buddy.
“Ha, Brother Han is the most handsome man now. By the way, Zi Yan, my sister-in-law, is very beautiful. Mengmeng is also really cute. I’ll take you over.”
Chen Changqing smiled and pondered for a while. Then he took out his mobile phone rapidly and sent a message to Zhou Fei, “Brother Han’s parents are back. They’re on the front hill and coming to you”
Boom!
Zhou Fei checked the message for the first time and rubbed her eyes hard.
Her face went blank and she was totally stunned.
“Ah!” She suddenly screamed and looked around at the crowd, saying, ”
“My brother-in-law’s parents are back! Zhang Li, your parents are back. They’re on the front hill and walking over to you! Sister-in-law, brother-in-law’s parents are back!”
Buzz!
Everyone’s expressions changed in an instant.
They felt more amazed than delighted since this news came so suddenly. Zi Yan felt the same way too.
